It is pretty much crazy to look at 16.5s IMO.
My bias ply 16.5s will be burn out tires, and the 2 good steel belt 16.5s are real good spares.

Those are what I have on my truck right now, and yes, they are very good tires, but they are showing signs of age from sitting outside for years.

i just replaced 2 of my 16.5's this past week. went to a 18 wheeler tire shop. the guy was just wanting to get rid of them, so for $65 a piece, i took 2 8.75 x 16.5's home. not bad in my opinion. everywhere else i went, they either couldn't find any, or it was going to be a week or so before they could get any. not only that, they were about twice as much.

And illegal in some states. You put 15 inch tires on a truck that is ment to carry more weight than the tire was designed for and it becomes a liaility issue for the company that built the rim.
